College Frosh: Who are They? [Depressed]

White, middle-of-the-road, Catholic/atheist kids whose parents went to college and who want masters degrees in business/health. They want better jobs and want to live a green, gay friendly, light on guns, heavy on taxes, health care providing, affirmative action-less world. Okay, it’s not quite that simple, but those are some of the things that pop out in a study of this year’s freshmen by UCLA. View a chart profiling the nationwide class of 2014 here.

The study also found record-low levels of emotional health though.

“The percentage of students reporting good or above-average emotional health dropped from 55.3 percent in 2009 to 51.9 percent in 2010, according to “The American Freshman: National Norms for Fall 2010” survey. That marks the lowest point since 1985, when the survey first asked the question.”

“College tuition is higher, so they feel the pressure to give their parents their money’s worth in terms of their academic performance,” she says. “There’s also a notion, and I think it’s probably true, that the better their grades are, the better chance they have at finding a job.”

Women were especially hard hit in their emotional health levels. Remember folks, OBHS is always there for you (except maybe snow days?). But, in their attempts to further the depression, commenters on the NYT Facebook page were not so understanding:

“Welcome to the real world. Suck it up.”

“Wah Wah Wah………… O little babies have some stress?”

“It’s not as easy as it looks on “Gossip Girl”, huh? Put down the Four Loko and suck it up.”

But on to what I’d wanted to post 2-day…
They’ve been laying down lives to protect and serve you and me since this crises started… so..
